To attract more passengers or to generate extra income over non-aeronautical services the airport decision-makers need to evaluate the quality of their services. This study aims at introducing an expanded approach to improve airport service quality aspects of the non-aeronautical business opportunities. Given the increasing number of airports passengers prefer airports which provide better or extra services compared to others. To reveal the airport service quality (ASQ) aspects together with the quality department experts we conducted a qualitative study that put forward six significant dimensions for an effective evaluation of airport service quality at an airport. Based on the results of the qualitative study we designed the sector-specific questionnaire and its empirical data is conducted over 250 passengers through a face-to-face survey. Survey results introduce a practical assessment tool for the use of airport managers to gather strategic inputs on their strategic plans and quality implications. Results also contribute to the literature by presenting a comprehensive understanding of the airport service quality.Englishinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessservice marketing, service practice, service quality and testing, airport services, airport service qualityPERFORMANCE-MEASUREMENT, PERCEPTIONS, MODEL, SATISFACTION, PASSENGERS, LEVELAirport ServicesService PracticeAirport Service QualityService MarketingService Quality and TestingArticle
